Motorised swivel wall mount

Does anybody know if anything like this is currently available? I was looking at the motorised lifts but would prefer a wall mount which could have the TV sitting against the wall when not being watched and could then be swiveled away from the wall, almost to 90 degrees, when viewing. I know there are a number of 'manual' ones available but I would ideally like to get a motorised one (for the lazy person inside me lol).

Re: Motorised swivel wall mount

Hi hydeyho,

Future Automation do a motorised bracket - http://www.futureautomation.co.uk/

My understanding is that it only swivels to about 60 degress though. Apparently the brackets they make are excellent but they are also expensive.

Cheers,

Ross

Re: Motorised swivel wall mount

I just bought the Lava motorised wall mount from RS100 which is excellent. See: http://www.rs100.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=563.

I am extremely pleased with this product. It works like a charm and has the added advantage of making cabling a lot easier. You can just swing the screen out and connect up as desired then return the screen to the flat position.

Also, we have our screen where we are subject to reflections from a window, however, a slight adjustment to the screen can reduce the reflections present which is great.

The motor is very quiet in operation and the ability to adjust pitch of the mount allows the mount to overcome walls which aren't particularly vertical!

Found that perhaps 3 people may be required for larger screens as it can be awkward to hook the mount plus screen onto the wall fixings. Also, if it were also available in black, that would be nice. Although I guess it could quite easily be painted, hmmm... wish I had painted it before mounting!
